Definitions
- the present invention is directed to a guide and remote traction system for mini-invasive surgery or endocavitary surgery, said system being easily maneuvered, positioned, hooked and used, which diminishes the number of required incisions to perform surgical procedures.
- the present invention consists in a guide and remote traction system for mini-invasive surgery or endocavitary surgery that is easily positioned and hooked, comprising: a detachable surgical endoclamp; a detachable and self-closing introduction guide assembled together with said surgical endoclamp; and remote magnetic traction means for said endoclamp.
- U.S. Pat. No. 7,169,104 published on Mar. 18, 2004, which discloses a remote guide anchoring system including an hooking device that is hooked to a body part in a patient's body; a magnetic clamp made of a magnetic material that is connected to the hooking device; and a magnetic device located outside of the patient's body to guide the clamp, which produces a magnetic field to move said magnetic clamp.
- the invention in this document requires a second clamp to close the magnetic clamp or to hook the clamp to the anchoring system.
- the former solution refers to a solution for digestive endoscopy that is very difficult to apply in laparoscopic surgery since the assembly solution for the clamp and its traction system is very difficult to carry out inside cavities.
- the present invention solves the problem of positioning and effectively hooking an endoclamp to an organ or tissue to be pulled, making the assembly easy to use, since it comprises a self-closing endoclamp actuated from the introduction guide. Subsequently, this endoclamp is moved by applying a magnetic force through the body wall using the remote traction means.
- the present invention has been realized, consisting in a guide and remote traction system for mini-invasive surgery with easy positioning and hooking and lower injury since it makes possible to eliminate one or several incisions performed with the previous art techniques, which brings about a benefit for patients. This allows a significant reduction on the recovery time of patients, removing potential risks associated to incisions and avoiding undesirable scars. Furthermore, the present invention proposes a guide and remote traction system comprising a hooking mechanism to the organ or tissue to be treated that is easily and safely operated, which facilitates its use by physicians. Therefore, the present invention is beneficial, since it decreases the number of incisions to perform the surgery and is easily used. The present invention solves a problem of positioning and effective hooking to the organ to be pulled, allowing an easy use and performing surgery with lower injury to the patient.
